This affordable high-performance film scanner is the ideal solution for professionals and photo enthusiasts that require exceptional quality scans of 35mm or Advanced Photo System (APS) films.

The best for the money By A Customer I have used the FS2710 for over a year and find it to be the best for the money IMHO. The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is the 3.2 Dymanic Range. I have used the scanner to scan litterally hundreds of slides, both mounted and in strips, without any problems what-so-ever. The scanner was simple to install, the software works flawlessly. All of my images on my site were made with this scanner. Instead of just taking someones word for it, look and judge for yourself. 71 of 85 people found the following review helpful. APS Film Handling Unusable By R. A Swirsky WARNING!: To Scan APS film you have to MANUALLY crank the knob to the desired frame and insert the adapter in.To scan the next frame you have to PULL OUT THE ADAPTER and crank it to the next image.It would take HOURS to can a roll of 40 APS film.If you're looking for a way to scan an entire roll of APS film, this is NOT the solution for you. 12 of 12 people found the following review helpful. Not for the faint at heart By Brad Bonner I have had this scanner for a year adn a half and have put nearly 5000 slides through it. I am happy with the overall quality of the scans for what I paid for this. I use this as a proofing tool-- I only get my negatives developed (when I shoot prints) and then scan them to proof them. Or if I shoot slides and want to put them on the internet or retouch them. The scanner will make up to an 8x12 at 400dpi. which is okay. Again you must look at what you are paying. The neat scratch removing features that the upper models have would be nice but again repeating for the price this is a great little scanner. I have been happy. I even got it to work in XP but it did take some research. Info for installing in XP or 2000 can be found [online.] See all 13 customer reviews...
